[00:25.481] A chieftain, to the Highlands bound,
[00:28.743] Cries, "Boatman, do not tarry!
[00:32.244] And I'll give thee a silver pound,
[00:35.450] To row us o'er the ferry."
[00:38.652]
[00:39.110] "Now who be ye, would cross Lochgyle,
[00:41.579] This dark and stormy water?"
[00:45.063] "O, I'm the chief of Ulva's isle,
[00:47.510] And this Lord Ullin's daughter.
[00:48.372]
[00:51.286] "And fast before her father's men
[00:54.321] Three days we've fled together,
[00:57.786] For should he find us in the glen,
[01:00.888] My blood would stain the heather.
[01:01.646]
[01:04.255] "His horsemen hard behind us ride;
[01:07.301] Should they our steps discover,
[01:10.539] Then who will cheer my bonny bride
[01:13.517] When they have slain her lover?"
[01:14.182]
[01:17.384] Outspoke the hardy Highland wight,
[01:20.065] "I'll go, my chief--I'm ready;
[01:23.288] It is not for your silver bright,
[01:26.568] But for your winsome lady:
[01:26.871]
[01:29.934] "And by my word! the bonny bird
[01:32.815] In danger shall not tarry;
[01:36.167] So though the waves are raging white,
[01:39.313] I'll row you o'er the ferry."
[01:39.554]
[01:42.848] By this the storm grew loud apace,
[01:46.144] The water-wraith was shrieking;
[01:49.162] And in the scowl of heaven each face
[01:52.395] Grew dark as they were speaking.
[01:52.651]
[01:55.593] But still as wilder blew the wind,
[01:58.422] And as the night grew drearer,
[02:01.749] Adown the glen rode armèd men,
[02:04.994] Their trampling sounded nearer.
[02:05.260]
[02:08.122] "O haste thee, haste!" the lady cries,
[02:11.387] "Though tempests round us gather;
[02:14.363] I'll meet the raging of the skies,
[02:17.687] But not an angry father."
[02:17.955]
[02:21.342] The boat has left a stormy land,
[02:24.072] A stormy sea before her,--
[02:27.174] When, oh! too strong for human hand,
[02:30.800] The tempest gathered o'er her.
[02:33.888]
[02:33.890] And still they row'd amid the roar
[02:37.492] Of waters fast prevailing:
[02:40.328] Lord Ullin reach'd that fatal shore,
[02:43.753] His wrath was changed to wailing.
[02:43.982]
[02:46.910] For sore dismay'd through storm and shade,
[02:49.691] His child he did discover:--
[02:53.076] One lovely hand she stretch'd for aid,
[02:56.644] And one was round her lover.
[02:56.923]
[02:59.159] "Come back! come back!" he cried in grief,
[03:02.610] "Across this stormy water:
[03:05.713] And I'll forgive your Highland chief,
[03:08.851] My daughter!--oh my daughter!"
[03:09.077]
[03:12.313] 'Twas vain: the loud waves lashed the shore,
[03:15.634] Return or aid preventing;--
[03:18.637] The waters wild went o'er his child,--
[03:21.928] And he was left lamenting.
